Olam response to CSO calls for coffee sector to "cease attacks" on EUDR

ofi recognizes the EU deforestation law (EUDR) is a necessary and positive step, helping to strengthen the industry's efforts to tackle issues ranging from deforestation to human rights and create a level playing field. 

ofi’s history of working to end deforestation in coffee and cocoa smallholder supply chains, together with our integrated business model, systems and technology solutions, and sustainability programs, mean we are well-positioned to provide the required due diligence and traceability obligations for our coffee and cocoa products destined for the EU market. 

Our existing traceability and information systems already provide much of the data required for compliance and have been enhanced to ensure EUDR readiness, including traceability to individually mapped farms. We regularly perform extensive deforestation risk assessments using Google Earth Engine planetary libraries and Global Forest Watch.
